Lemongrass, Syniti Bring SAP Strategy to Florida Crystals Corp

Florida Crystals Corporation (FCC) is partnering with Lemongrass and Syniti, a part of Capgemini, to deliver a data strategy and assessment initiative, thus laying the foundation for a “global clean-core transformation and SAP modernization journey.”

Accelerating data readiness and clean-core transformation

For starters, the collaboration will begin with an initial data assessment to focus on the customer master and plant maintenance data workstreams.

The partners will evaluate data relevance to help distinguish between valuable information and unnecessary data debt. Syniti will provide holistic data insights for continued business optimization and enable FCC to streamline data volumes and usability across critical systems.

“Clean core isn’t just about simplifying code; it’s about ensuring that the data powering business processes is accurate, relevant, and optimized,” said Corey Swenson, the VP of IT enterprise systems, data and analytics for ASR Group, an FCC subsidiary. “Partnering with Lemongrass and Syniti allows us to move quickly and confidently toward a data-driven foundation for our continuing SAP transformation.”

The project aims to identify duplication and cleansing opportunities to help reduce business risk, lower costs, and optimize ROI. It will also support FCC’s goal of aligning clean data and clean code.

Partnership brings transformation capabilities and data expertise together

The partnership will combine Lemongrass’s SAP transformation capabilities with Syniti’s data cleansing and migration expertise, consultative support, and automated reporting. This combination will enable FCC to gain the speed, agility, and enterprise-grade strength required to help deliver measurable business outcomes in both large and complex environments.

“At Syniti, we do what others can’t. We don’t just move data, we make it work smarter and can deliver results that set the standard for enterprise change,” said Ricado Rosales, head of the Americas at Syniti. “By combining Syniti’s decades of migration experience with Lemongrass’s SAP capabilities, we are displacing traditional lift-and-shift approaches that enable organizations to modernize without sacrificing data quality – while also helping ensure a clean core for both data and code.”

Through a joint solution, the companies will provide a strong approach to migrations from ECC to SAP S/4HANA.

“Many organizations struggle to achieve clean-core outcomes because their data foundations aren’t ready. Our partnership with Syniti and FCC breaks through that barrier by addressing data process optimization together,” said Henrik Wagner, chief partner officer at Lemongrass. “We’re very excited about the collaboration between Syniti and our Lemongrass Cloud Platform (LCP) to enable low downtime migrations with the benefits of enhanced data quality. This is the gold standard for Cloud ERP transformations.”

Lemongrass completes partnership with SAP PartnerEdge

Earlier this month, Lemongrass announced the completion of a strategic partnership with SAP under the PartnerEdge (PE) Build program for its Clean Core AI Accelerator solution.

“Entering a strategic partnership with SAP through the PartnerEdge Build program marks an important milestone for our company,” said Tim Wintrip, CEO of Lemongrass. “This collaboration strengthens our ability to innovate on SAP BTP, and we are excited to get our Clean Core AI more closely integrating with the BTP ecosystem. This will help customers to simplify and accelerate their journey to clean core and CloudERP.”

SAP PartnerEdge Build is for partners to develop IP that extends, integrates with, or enhances SAP solutions on BTP.

The program provides full access to SAP APIs, tools, and services; technical enablement and coaching for building certified applications; and go-to-market support, including co-marketing, SAP Store availability, and clear commercialization paths for standalone apps or extensions.

Lemongrass also participates in both the SAP BTP Focus Program and the SAP Business Data & Analytics (BDC) Focus Program. It is a member of the BTP/BDC Partner Advisory Council.

Lemongrass debuted its Clean Core AI Accelerator in July of this year to help SAP users cut complexity, reduce technical debt, and prepare ERP systems for cloud and AI upgrades. Read more about the solution and its role in accelerating digital transformation efforts.
